All Done

We finished up with school last week, and boy was that a relief. Even with a part time tutor, this was our most difficult year, and I want to put it behind me. The very day we finished I had all the homeschooled cabinets cleaned out, and now I have 3 boxes in my sunroom of old supplies to get rid of. I'm not sure that I want to mess with selling all our old stuff, or if I should just give it away. Still pondering that one, I don't know how to use ebay, but maybe I should learn, because there is probably $500 worth of stuff in those boxes. On the other hand, since things are tight for so many people, it would be a blessing to give it away.


Amanda is not getting a job this summer, unless Nate has stuff for her to do, so I am wondering how I am going to keep her busy. There is not much for a teenager to do around here, and so far I haven't found anything suitable for her. She will be spending some time with her Dad, but that will only be about 5 days per month. You can't exactly send an almost 16 year old out to play for hours on end, and her computer time is limited to 1hr a day, so we shall see how this works out. The neighbors up the street just put in a pool, and there is a 16 yr old girl that has invited her to swim, which I allowed, but I don't really know the parents at all, so that could be a little dicey.
